CLACKAMAS, OR — Dozens of mothers nursed their babies Sunday at the Ram Restaurant in Clackamas Town Center to protest the restaurant’s treatment of a nursing mother a week earlier. Restaurant patron Erin Klein says a manager asked her to cover up while nursing. The manager cited complaints from other customers. Oregon law permits breastfeeding in public. The restaurant learned this firsthand when a social media campaign brought the “nurse-in” to the Ram.
On Sunday, however, the restaurant welcomed the nursing mothers. The Ram’s marketing manager described the event as a staff training opportunity.
